Supply Chain Engineering (Minor)
The Supply Chain Engineering Minor allows students to develop skills associated with the networks and processes that move materials and supplies into production facilities, transforms them into finished goods and then distributes products to customer markets. This minor takes a multi-disciplinary approach to solving problems associated with logistics, operations, network design, systems and services optimization, planning/scheduling and alternatives analysis. Completion of this minor will prepare undergraduate students for the global marketplace by providing a strong foundation and integrated framework from which to navigate decisions, influence production planning, and impact time to market.
To be admitted to the program, a student must have a GPA of at least 2.0. Application for admission to any University minor program is now available via MyPack Portal. Admission will be based upon the student’s academic record, and in most cases no longer requires departmental review. Go to Add a Minor to apply.
